Zyxel LTE7480
LTE-A Pro Outdoor Router

Overview:

Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) is an alternative means to provide Internet connectivity that utilizes wireless network technology rather than fixed lines. With a fixed wireless access offering, network operators can supply a vast amount of new customers with broadband Internet connectivity. By delivering broadband over the existing LTE mobile networks, operators can rapidly increase revenue from the untapped markets.

CBRS offers capacity expansion functions without the complexity of sharing the band with WiFi, while its 10 MHz channels can be combined using CA to increase data rates; unlicensed GAA frequencies can also be used to transport signal and data traffics. In both cases, network quality delivered by an LTE-based solution is better than that of WiFi. As cable operators have few spectrum holdings, CBRS also allows them to enter the wireless industry by deploying LTE networks to effectively become Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs).

The Zyxel LTE7480-S905 4G LTE-A Pro Outdoor Router sports a routing mode with both bridge and router functions, high-gain antenna for better signal performance and robust IP66 outdoor hardware designed for harsh environments – all the necessary features that benefit the critical “second WAN” design. No matter you have a router or not, the LTE7480-S905 can be easily deployed and integrated into your existing environment.

You can set 4G LTE as your main connection or use it as a backup in case performance of the main connection drops. The Zyxel LTE7480-S905 is good for any venue like suburban areas, public locations, homes and offices. Enjoy 4G LTE-Advanced technology effortlessly with the LTE7480-S905.

Benefits:

Lightning-fast Internet connectivity

The Zyxel LTE7480-S905 4G LTE-A Pro Outdoor Router employs 3GPP UE Category 16 – the best-practice LTE technology with downlink data rates of up to 573 Mbps through 8 Spatial Streams on two component carriers.

Easy installation

Easy Installation is made possible with the integrated IEEE 802.3at PoE support, dedicated WiFi AP with mobile apps content graphics and sounds for Donor eNB alignment.

Built-In 4x4 MIMO high-gain antenna

The Zyxel LTE7480-S905 LTE Outdoor Router provides 4x4 MIMO high-gain antennas of up to 10 dBi per element that work effectively in outdoor environments. The outdoor design enables it to work under near non-line-of-sight conditions to increase coverage and bandwidth as well as to eliminate edge corners having difficulty accessing good signals.

Remote management, TR-069 and Web GUI

Through the LTE radio interface, the Zyxel LTE7480-S905 supports TR-069 and remote GUI to be fully configurable and software upgradeable through events triggered by the operators. Thanks to remote throughput testing, the trouble shooting can be performed locally or remotely with better efficiency.

Non-stop connectivity with LTE 2nd WAN for fail-over

Multi-WAN fail-over relieves the risk of network outage due to the dependence on single WAN connection. Even better, the wireless LTE allows you to take advantage of the 2nd WAN without a cabling plan. As long as the gateway supports “multi-WAN fail-over”, you can just connect Zyxel LTE7480-S905 to the existing gateway and set LTE as the fail-over WAN.
